“Are there no sons for Israel?
    Or is there no heir for him?
Why has Milcom taken possession of Gad,
    and his people dwelled in its towns?
² Therefore^[b] look, days are coming,” declares^[c] Yahweh,
“and I will sound against Rabbah, the Ammonites,^[d]
    the alarm of the war,
and it will become as a mound of desolation,
    and its daughters will burn in the fire.
Then Israel will dispossess his dispossessors,” says Yahweh.
